Hissers as Feeders

I am starting my research on Hissing Cockroaches, as I would like to have some in the very near future.

I was just wondering what types of creatures will eat hissers?

turtles, bearded dragons, monitors, etc. Smaller reptiles will eat young hissers.

Oh thanks! I was just wondering. I am looking into getting some as pets, and was worried about potential surplus.

The only one of my lizards that eats hissers is my monitor. All my other lizards don't seem to care for them at all. Both my beardie and frilled dragon starts to chew on them, but spits them out. They seem to be too tough, or maybe just not "meaty" enough.
